The Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership (PDP) has teamed up with CommuteInfo to offer a chance to win a $75 gift card to one of numerous downtown businesses. CommuteInfo offers commuters who complete a profile on their website a detailed report of personalized commuting options. Commuting options include alternative suggestions to current commuting habits, including transit, carpooling, vanpooling, and bikepooling. The program serves employers and commuters in Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Greene, Indiana, Lawrence, Washington, and Westmoreland counties. The sites says that personalized profiles take two business days to process, however we received ours in several hours.
For Pittsburgh commuters who complete a profile by the end of 2008, the PDP will draw three monthly winners for gift cards to Capital Grille, McCormick and Schmick’s, Six Penn Kitchen, Macy’s, Saks, and One Oxford Centre.
